摘要
由于叙利亚内战，来自71个被重新安置在加拿大的家庭的126名儿童（6至13岁）被跟踪了3年多，采用了兄弟姐妹比较，纵向设计。该设计允许我们检验东道国接受性语言能力（L2）保护资源有限（父母教育程度低，家庭规模大）的难民儿童心理健康的假设。兄弟姐妹比较设计消除了家族内部和家族之间的混淆。采用多水平生长曲线模型的研究结果表明，儿童外化行为在3年的研究中开始时较高，然后逐渐下降。研究发现，接受性L2可以保护难民儿童免受父母教育水平低和家庭规模大的风险，同时排除这种保护过程发生在家庭之间的可能性。（PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA，版权所有）。
The role of refugee children's host country language in their resilience to resettlement: A longitudinal and within-family study on Syrian children's early adaptation in Canada.
One hundred twenty-six children (between 6 and 13 years) in 71 families who were resettled in Canada, as a result of the Syrian Civil War, were followed up over 3 years, using a sibling comparison, longitudinal design. This design allowed us to test the hypothesis that host country receptive language competence (L2) protects refugee children's mental health in families with limited resources (low parental education, large family size). The sibling comparison design unconfounded within- and between-family processes. Results using multilevel growth curve modeling showed that children's externalizing behavior started high and decreased over the 3 years of study. Receptive L2 was found to protect refugee children from the risks of low parental education and large family size while ruling out the possibility that this protective process occurred between families.

期刊介绍：
Developmental Psychology ® publishes articles that significantly advance knowledge and theory about development across the life span. The journal focuses on seminal empirical contributions. The journal occasionally publishes exceptionally strong scholarly reviews and theoretical or methodological articles. Studies of any aspect of psychological development are appropriate, as are studies of the biological, social, and cultural factors that affect development. The journal welcomes not only laboratory-based experimental studies but studies employing other rigorous methodologies, such as ethnographies, field research, and secondary analyses of large data sets. We especially seek submissions in new areas of inquiry and submissions that will address contradictory findings or controversies in the field as well as the generalizability of extant findings in new populations. Although most articles in this journal address human development, studies of other species are appropriate if they have important implications for human development. Submissions can consist of single manuscripts, proposed sections, or short reports.
